Cheesy Chicken Rotini

Velveeta

1-1/2 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces

2 cups water

3 cups rotini pasta, uncooked

1 pkg. (16 oz.) frozen broccoli, cauliflower and carrot blend

1 can (10 oz.) diced tomatoes & green chilies, undrained

½ lb. (8 oz.) processed cheese product, cut into ½-inch cubes

COOK and stir chicken in large skillet sprayed with cooking spray on medium-high heat 5 min or until no longer pink.

STIR in water. Bring to boil. Add pasta; stir. 

From a distance this looks like I'm drowning the pasta in a stupendous amount of butter. 


Cover; simmer on medium-low heat 10 min. or until pasta is tender.

ADD remaining ingredients; stir. Cook, covered, 5 to 7 min. or until cheese product is completely melted and vegetables are crisp-tender, stirring frequently.

So many things going on!

My Rating: 4/5 "I expected this dish to basically just taste like a big glob of Velveeta. It's happy much more interesting. The RoTel adds wonderful spice, the veggies add nice crunch, and there's only enough cheese to make you happy without overwhelming all the other flavors. All that in an easy weeknight dinner!"
